Reference: Creating Direct-attached Media Storage

This procedure explains how to attach storage volumes to an instance. Use these volumes to create the storage required by Flame to store media. A suggested setup is 4 x 2 TB ST1 EBS volumes in RAID0. For information on creating a RAID 0 on AWS, see AWS documentation.

To create the volumes:

1. Open EC2 console > Elastic Block Store > Volumes.

2. Click Create volume.

3. In Create Volume, set the following options.

   • Volume Type
   • Size (GiB)
   • IOPS
   • Throughput (MiB/s)

4. Click Create volume.

To attach the volumes to the Flame instance:

1. Open EC2 console > Elastic Block Store > Volumes.

2. Select one of the four volumes and select Actions > Attach volume.

3. In Attach Volume, set Instance to your Flame and click Attach volume. Do not edit Device name.
